This female Least Bittern snatches a green frog from a pool at the Green Cay Wetland site near Miami, Florida. It all happened very quickly. The frog is pulled from the water, shaken to death in a milli-second and swallowed. We only saw two Least Bitterns, a male and female, both at the Green Cay site. Of all the wetlands we visited (scores), this place was my all time favourite reserve. Truly stunning and only set up in 2005.
